@battlefordsNOW 5/5 The legal and clinical question isn't a technicality.

If capacity is the stated justification, but capacity isn't actually the threshold, then what is the threshold?

[Dr. Brady Bouchard @bradybouchard]

@battlefordsNOW 4/5 We do not routinely strip competent adults of their liberty and bodily autonomy because others disagree with their choices.

Addiction should be no exception to that principle.

A coordinated, well-funded pro-Israel campaign is trying to come after my reputation, my Order of Canada, my business, and my staff — with threats, smears, even physical attacks. All because I speak the truth about the genocide in Gaza.
This isn’t about one tweet.
It’s about silencing anyone who dares to speak up. I won’t be intimidated.

https://t.co/XycOx9NlMm Involuntary treatment without medical evidence of benefit is just "jail". I'd respect you more if you were just honest about it: "we want to jail people with severe substance use disorders because we don't like seeing them".

We really have to stop electing people like this

https://t.co/kGhkoYOyyf Let's be clear - safe consumption sites ABSOLUTELY save lives, and provide low-barrier access to treatment and other services. What is with the conservative obsession with ignoring experts? #cdnpol

Once again Saskatchewan, I beg of you to consider the experiences of other provinces that have tried and failed the Urgent Care Clinic experience. It is not cost effective.

Israel's plans to ethnically cleanse and occupy Gaza must be met with global condemnation and sanctions.

The British government continues to supply arms and political cover for the most egregious breaches of international law. This must end.

https://t.co/7bEUtWYzvi Let's be clear Lori Carr - "recovery-oriented" care ignores those who are unable to engage in your idealized version of treatment, and will continue to kill our most vulnerable in the context of a toxic drug supply.

[Dr. Brady Bouchard @bradybouchard]

Please @jeremycockrill, I understand there are political pressures, but this crisis will get worse until we engage in evidence-based treatment. #harmreduction measures save lives.

[Dr. Brady Bouchard @bradybouchard]

https://t.co/n2V5UJ2AD1 Society isn't OK with this, but our government is. We need an evidence-based focus on #harmreduction including expanding supervised consumption sites and witnessed safe supply. Ignoring those not engaged in treatment is signing their death warrants.

As an addictions physician, the management of presumed opioid use disorder in E09 of #ThePitt is absolutely appalling. Full of judgement, bias, and deception.

[Warren Kinsella @kinsellawarren]

If you need evidence that Trump is mentally defective, this is it. On the *same day* he says he will hit Canadian oil with crippling tariffs, he says he wants a pipeline built...for Canadian oil.

He's deeply, deeply stupid.

Because fining folks who use drugs has worked in every other jurisdiction. 🤦 https://t.co/hN681JVnuk
